Synopsis

This book provides ample guidance for you to manage your retirement funds, but if you do prefer to seek professional advice, it sets out the criteria for choosing a reliable advisor, and may even be a book from which your advisor can benefit if he or she is not fully conversant with TIAA-CREF's offerings.

Since retiring in 1999, Ed lived with his wife Marjorie, in anhistoric home on the Stanford University Campus. Three years ago, theycelebrated their Golden Wedding Anniversary. In retirement, he devoted much ofhis time to activities that he neglected during his career as a professor -investing and retirement planning. After reading hundreds of books and articleson these subjects, he decided to share the lessons he learned with friends, colleagues, family, former students and others through his writing and publicspeaking. He brought these lessons to life by drawing on his personal setbacks, mistakes, and triumphs in investing and planning for retirement.
